A certain membrane protein is found on the ER membrane with the N-terminus on the ER side of the membrane and the C-terminus on the cytosol side of the membrane. The protein contains three transmembrane domains. What would be the orientation of the protein across the ER membrane if the gene were mutated such that the third transmembrane domain coded for hydrophilic amino acids? Explain your answer.

4. Predict the membrane orientation of a protein that is synthesized with an N-terminal (cleaved) signal sequence, followed by a stop-transfer sequence. • The protein spans the membrane once, with the N-terminus in the cytosol, and the C-terminus in the ER lumen • The protein spans the membrane once, with the C-terminus in the cytosol, and the N-terminus in the ER lumen.

You are studying a protein, Y, that is predicted to be an integral membrane protein. Sequence analysis suggests the following: (18 points) The protein has 7 transmembrane domains spaced evenly in the middle of the protein. At the extreme N-terminus is a sensing domain that detects glucose levels. At the extreme C-terminus is a protein domain that resembles a kinase domain.   This domain is incredibly likely to be intracellular. You have data to suggest that this domain interacts with cytosolic...
